the have business and can’t leave it .... and my business is still fresh

i think people visiting this thread should understand that even if your intention is your genuine, there is no way the VISA officer will know. All these explanation we are doing is just to let us guess the thinking of the officer not that you will have time to explain anything to them in DETAILS. Even if you answer questions they didn't ask you, it makes you more susceptible to denial. So all your explanations is valid but the visa officer won't ask you all these questions and your interview will be over as soon as it starts
Your interview will go like
After initial pleasantries....
You are visiting a friend....Yes
How long have you known him
Who is sponsoring your trip
Why are you visiting?
Are you married?
Have you travelled out of the country before?

Something similar to this and a quick no to the last two questions end the interview believe me

Ugommma:
Hello friends, I need help please, if i want to visit the US and is been sponsored by a friend In US who is a citizen, please what are the steps to take andand will my no travel history Nd being single be a barrier?.

Leave USA alone for now. Think about it? Why would a visa officer want to give you a visit visa to the USA at this time that visa approval success rate is very low. No travel history. You can't even afford the cost of travel...a friend is sponsoring. Why would your friend sponsor your vacation to USA? And you are single? So why won't you run away? Even if it is not America, few embassies will approve visa for someone claiming a friend is sponsoring their holiday trip. If it is student visa it even makes sense but for visiting...Na almost automatic denial. It obviously means you don't even have a real job and the next thing is to go on a visit. Sorry if my language is a bit hard but the reality is you stand no chance but I know some guys here will say na lie. Go try your luck. In that case, I agree with them and wish you best of luck in contributing your visa money to American economy.
NOTE...you have added more information about aromatherapy. Why can't your friend come to Nigeria and train you about aromatherapy? If you have a business you are running why can't you sponsor your own trip? Please note, YOU WONT HAVR TIME TO DO ALL THESE EXPLANATIONS DURING INTERVIEW. The officer will only ask you generic questions like
Are u married
Have you travelled before
Who is sponsoring your trip

And after just these three questions...you are denied without further explanation so don't assume you will have time to start explaining why it is your friend sponsoring the trip

Enick:
I agree that UK/Canada seems to have the best system and the US have to embrace the same practice. While document can be frauded as claimed by US officials, the advent of technology and thirty party agreement has made it difficult for applicants to fake bank statements. This implies that you are almost certain not to be issued a visa if your account lacks sufficient fund and any indication that you may have lodge some money for the application process. Salary payment into a verifiable account shown that such applicant works with the company and earn salaries.

With the US system, professional liers/trained actors can easily convince the VO to get his or her visa approved with zero account balance and little or no home ties because the questions are generic. multiple times?

90 Percent of people getting US non immigrant visa have travel history to UK and other places where they check documents. Very few get it without travel history so they are just allowing other embassies to do the checking for them. Why check documents again when UK and Schengen states have checked them for you

Jonaholorun:
I have a registered business, 34, I had been denied student visa twice last year , married and my wife's convocation is in April as I planned applying to go for her convocation on b1/2 visa by then. I planned spending not more than a week as my business is highly demanding. I planned getting a landed property soon for personal reasons. My monthly average is 180k. What are my chances please. All kinds of comments are totally welcome.

Thanks

bros...with 180k monthly income, how you wan take show say your business is highly demanding so you won't spend more than one week? Moreso, this same demanding business was there when you wanted to go and study last year and you were denied twice. Assuming the business is highly demanding, why would you abadon it for years of study? So, if you could abadon the business for studies in USA last year, how do you want to prove that you won't abadon same business this year if given a visa? Moreso, your wife is already in USA. So you want to go and join her and continue with the family hussle? If you no get another story apart from this one, don't waste your money. No VO will be convinced

stposh:
Good morning house, kindly advise please.
So hubby was denied USA visa on Thursday.however,he has reapplied and has an interview next Thursday.
From his interview,
Vo: regular questions on names, passport,are you married, kids etc
Then
Vo: why are u going to USA
Hubby: I am going for a conference
Vo: how long will you be staying
Hubby : 7 days
Vo: have you visited any country in the last 5 yrs
Hubby: yes. UK,UAE,Singapore
Vo: where do you work
Hubby: I work with ***** oil and gas as an offshore engineer
Vo: explain more
Hubby: I work offshore (on the rig) doing *****
Vo handed him the pink note of refusal.

No further questions where asked about his salary etc.

Kindly advice on what he can do better as he is going for another one.

Note the conference is and oil and gas conference which he is a member of the association.

The conference is this September.

whaoh. How do you guys get interview date within one week. If he was denied last week and he already got a new interview date again . The profile is okay as far as I can see. Something hidden somewhere. Your husband over stayed any of the visa? Has been denied USA visa before? The conference has no bearing on work? If it is self sponsored, is he on leave or what? Why take a break from work for a self sponsored conference that has no bearing on work? I don't know o but his profile appears strong. However, getting a reversal within one week is unlikely. Why is the conference so important he must attend that you are applying within one week? Has he paid so much for the conference? It is not like he is going for masters that resumption date is so close hence need to reapply. The fact that he is reapplying in a week may mean the ECO is right. This may be more than a conference....by and large, we should stop wasting money on American visa. The denial rate is too high. Unless it is extremely important, go else where for vacation till our image is better

Sasorah:
Thank you, but is it a bad thing that my choice is US? Anyway if that's how it is I'll go elsewhere when I find somewhere I'd 'like' to visit, also my mum is sponsoring me.

Not at all bros. Unfortunately, if you ask 10 people their choice too , eight of them will say America is their choice. Since they can't accommodate everyone and since on a chance of probability, almost 30 percent of people on tourist visa will try to game the system and not return, they have no choice than to allow people with reasonable chance of returning. Between you and I, you know deep down that the only reason your mum is sending you on vacation to America is not just for fun...it is to prepare ground for your eventual immigration. But imagine if you are earning say 500k in Nigeria. It is not much but unless you get a good offer in America you won't just run away like that without thinking twice. Also, imagine if you have travelled to UK you didn't run away. You went to Germany you didn't run away...while it is not foolproof, at least you are not absolutely desperate else you would have abused the visa. So it is not fair that the VO will say why America first. But in your case... it is a very relevant question. Your mum may not want to waste money to send you to Mauritius cos you know it is a dead end but if you go....it means you really want to vacate and not to run away. That is the way it works. If you really want to go on vacation and the money is available truly for fun, if they deny you American visa, you go to Seychelles island. Going back to reapply immediately especially when you know nobody in America shows the intention is not vacation. So take the advice and go elsewhere first.

Sasorah:
Uhm I did it myself, I clearly stated that i went to Benin Republic for studies(I school there and my passport was stamped when I passed the border last year)
And my school took us for excursion in Ghana.

I just wanted to know if I can change the answer to the question in my DS160 form ( do you know anyone in the US) to yes

you really assumed a Yes answer to this question would work in your favour. Either way, it won't. If you answered no as a student, why would you want to vacate in America without knowing anybody there and it is your very first vacation? You will spend thousands of dollars as a student just to go and sightsee alone America when you are not working and it is not as if you are going to visit someone that is close to you. On the other hand, if you say yes, the VO may also assume the person will help you to stay illegally since the person knows about the system and you have nothing to lose...you can abadon your studies and start afresh. If God help you and the person also got to America first with a visit visa before changing status, na automatic denial. Bottom line, the answer to that question will not change the outcome whichever way you answered it. You have no ties. No job, no wife, no family yet you are going on vacation in far away America as a student .
Start small...and build it up. If vacation is really your aim, start with Mauritius, South Africa, Kenya. Even if you also plan to elope which is not advisable, there is still no short cut given your circumstances. Don't waste your money to reapply soon without travelling elsewhere first. You will likely be denied again.

greatalash:
Hi house, my interview is next week. Please I want us to criticize this my proposed Transcript and what to take along. No abuse please



Vo : passport please
Me : good morning while I pass my passport
Vo : why are you going to the US
Me: for vacation and visit ****** and family
Vo : how long will you be staying
Me : 3weeks
Vo :How do you know ***** and family
Me : **** is my auntY friends ****and she is the Co ordination of Bleep program in USA while am the moderator in Nigeria that make us communicate alot
Vo: what do you do presently
Me : I work in ******
Vo : are you married
Me : yes with kid
Vo: do you have any travel experience
Me : no, coz this Is the first time I'm granted leave at work
Vo : how much do you earn monthly
Me : ******

You get plenty red flag. First time leave na straight to America. I know you will say why not but I am just telling you the way the VO reason. You no go Kenya, you no go Dubai, you no go OBUDU RESORT, na America straight. Most VO's won't be convinced.
Moreso, you are married and you are travelling alone. Meaning money may be the problem. Most VO's believe for a family man, vacation is better spent as a family. Now your very first vacation in a long time, you are supposed to take your wife and kid to OBUDU or Ghana for a memorable holiday but you prefer to spend it in America. Only God knows when next they will give you leave at work meaning your innocent wife will still be denied quality time with hubby for a long time simply because hubby want to go to America.
Sorry, I am not convinced thus time you are not trying to JAPA....you may apply another time

NB....let me be serious here. The moment you tell the VO you are married, he will want to know why you are not travelling with hubby. If you say she no get leave, he will just pass and deny you . Quote me for that. And even if you go with them, he will ask wether you have travelled together as a family before. If you say no, he will in 90percent of the cases deny you. Meaning....take them to South Africa first so that we know you are genuine tourist. Nevertheless, I am not a VO and people in your shoes have been granted visa before although ninety percent of people in your shoes will be denied. Go with plenty of luck.

somehow:
It is a beautiful sport sir.

thanks sir. I will find out in a week. Hope Nigeria goes far to make the excitement more

Ladies and gentlemen...I was in Russia for the world cup. It was so fantastic. I am also going with the supporters club to China with my entire family. Truth be told....I haven't been following basketball. I don't know wether this will be at least half as interesting as the football world cup. I am looking forward to it. I am following this thread to further develop my interest. I hope I have fun with my family in China.

kushme:
Shattap and stop defending what is wrong...

One Abdulmutallab is serving life in the US, that we all know, but how many Abdulmutallabs or Hausas have they executed in Indonesia and other Asian countries ?
You guys always tryna find ways to justify your natural dirty lifestyles through some ethnic comparison..

I think you are correct. None has been executed in Indonesia. They keep it local. They are blowing themselves in their quest for 37 virgins in Maiduguri. But honestly, I don tire for this our Igbo brothers.

Lexusgs430:
Uncommon medical tools........... Mitt is very effective, have you seen a patient in itu or hdu.... Pull off the mitts......

My answer is NO.......

Bottom line is they don't have your Mitt in Ukraine or they don't believe it is as effective as those ropes. And if that guy had made it, he would have been grateful they tied him like Rago as long as he made it. Unfortunately, the guy didn't make it and all you could see is ABUSE. People still practice in places where they are challenged in terms of facilities and they still make a lot of difference and even abroad, they still tie people like Rago. At least, gynaecologist worldwide still use stirops to tie women like Rago and they are not complaining

Lexusgs430:
I have not said you should sue, but simply creating awareness of an alternative device. Rather than tie a patient, like a criminal..........

so you now agree there are alternative devices. I thought you said restraint is bad. All they need to do is assign four hefty nurses to hold him down and observe him according to you. Anyway, if we are living in a village and we don't have your alternative device....should we just allow the patient to keep pulling the tubes or is it still abuse if we restrain them? Nigerians and over sabi

Your description of Petersburg reminds me of the world cup....I had an amazing two weeks in Petersburg with my wife.

Lexusgs430:
Read this slowly......

No. You go back and read it slowly. You need to put your over Sabi to one corner. Yes. You can be sued if you restrained a patient against their wish. So, what is the wish of this unconscious patient? Who told you the family members didn't give informed consent before restraint? Moreso, you said most states have laws governing restraint...yes, just follow the law. It means you can restrain somebody once the law of a particular state is followed....so what don't you understand there?

NB.....you even said they are sued because they didn't take precautions not because they restrained patient.....so before you restrain a patient...take precautions, documents reasons and consent if any taken.

Lexusgs430:
So do we accept you also screenshot jargons..........

the screenshot is enough to tell you that up till today, some patients are placed under physical restraint in UK and it is allowed. Even in USA. The screenshot is from NHS . That is all that matters. Meanwhile, the circumstances of this patient is different from UK so all your MCA jargon is irrelevant to this particular patient but every country... including UK adopts physical restraint occasionally

Lexusgs430:
Let me school you, just a little bit.....


Was that patient under any MCA protocol, when he was restrained?


Don't just screenshot and post legislations, without understanding the content of the legislation..... Even patients under MCA, would never have limbs tied......

you are talking jargons. This patient is in Ukraine so what MCA protocol are you talking about ?

Lexusgs430:
Do you practice within the NHS sector?.....

what has this gotten to do with the fact that even in UK and indeed all over the world, some circumstances warrant physical restraint either in emergency or psychiatry. However, the restraint must not be punitive, must be proportional to the degree of damage or danger the patient will pose to self or others.....and even if you don't believe in such practice, since it is not illegal in ukraine, you can't call it abuse simply because it is against your own practice. Moreso, it is not every facility that have enough manpower to assign two nurses to be monitoring a patient in a busy ward. Reality in practice in understaffed setting means something like this is inevitable. By the way, it is not illegal in ukraine so

Lexusgs430:
Not in the United Kingdom...... Simply because, it's a form of abuse.........

lies. This is from NHS. There are some patient that must restrained simple.

orunmila144:
true. in eastern europe they are poor so they use more barbaric methods like tying you to the bed.

ok

orunmila144:
its a 3rd world country

They use physical restraint all over the world including America.

Lexusgs430:
What the hospital should have done, rather than tie him down. Was put him on close supervision........

Physically restricting a patient, is bad practice....... Not to talk of placing ropes on all his limbs and knotting him in bed.......

So after putting him on close observation and he keeps removing it what do you do? They didn't tie him to bed...they were restraining him

Lexusgs430:
Did you say nursing precaution? It's abuse.... Pure and simple.........

That's called physical restraint in medical parlance. And someone was educating you you were still saying it is abuse. Since the guy was not conscious, he would be trying to remove anything that was making him uncomfortable subconsciously including oxygen tubes etc so you physically restrain them.

He collected money from APC alone to bring down Jonathan via Sahara reporters in 2015. So me wey no collect money should go and face bullet for him. Revolution ko, evolution ni

you may actually need help. People that are frustrated with life are always hoping the world will quickly end so they start imagining things and start hearing voices. Later it develops to full fledged schizophrenia. Please seek help. Don't be ashamed to meet with a psychiatrist and discuss your problem. Most times, if the world don't end on 30th, you may commit suicide. Please, please...you really need help
